Thriller Police Procedural
Two years after the events of Case Histories left him a
retired millionaire, former detective Jackson Brodie has
followed Julia, his occasional girlfriend and former
client, to Edinburgh for its famous summer arts festival.
But when he watches a man brutally attacked in a traffic
jam--the apparent victim of an extreme case of road rage--a
chain of events is set in motion that will pull the wife of
an unscrupulous real estate tycoon, a timid but successful
crime novelist, and a hardheaded female police detective
into Jackson's orbit. Suddenly out of retirement, Brodie is
once again in the midst of several mysteries that intersect
in one giant and sinister scheme. A triumphant novel filled
with wit and surprise and intrigue, ONE GOOD TURN will
delight the many fans who applauded Kate Atkinson's first
foray into thrillers, and it will win her even more devoted
readers as she continues to blur the boundaries that divide
literary and crime fiction.
